Feedback:"During my internship, I supported Karen with paperwork most of the time. She has a lot to do and it was a pleasure to assist and learn from her. I entered orders into the system, made Cut Tickets for the orders, entered bills into the system, made pictures of examples or fabrics. I used my English for various tasks, including answering the phone, joining in on meetings with people in the office or listening to their discussions. There was a lot of terminology I didn't know for the fashion industry. That was challenging. But the people from Galaxy treated me very well and were always very friendly with me. The organizers at INTERNSHIP USA helped and supported me a LOT! For anyone wondering how to find an internship in New York fashion industry, this is an excellent place to start!"
